In one example, a semiconductor device includes a conductive structure having a conductive structure upper side. A roughening is on the conductive structure upper side and a groove is in the conductive structure extending partially into the conductive structure from the conductive structure upper side.

An encapsulant covers the electronic component, at least portions of the roughening, and at least portions of the conductive structure upper side. The groove has smoothed sidewalls that include substantially planarized portions of the roughening. The smooth sidewalls reduce flow of the attachment film across the conductive structure upper side to improve adhesion of the encapsulant to the conductive structure.
